It's the coffee shop that feels like home. It's intimate, house baked goods, and you can never say no to a jalapeno cheddar scone.
They have the best cocktails, charcuterie boards, and everything else in between! A must go see as it's by Minnetonka Lake as well! Our favorite: Sea salt chocolate chip cookies. This is a must buy if you stop by!
If you're feeling French and fancy.... head here. They have a location in Edina too!
Good burgers and insane variety of dipping sauces.
Downtown Excelsior has fun little shops that have local artist curated items. Claire's obsessed with this place.
Beer lovers UNITE!
Waffles and ice-cream anyone? They make unicorn ice-cream cones as well!
Fun trails to cruise around on! They have a beach front a well. Pack a picnic and or get take out and head down to the beach or for a hike.
Check the website as you'll need a permit. They have a beach area as well. :)
Brunch anyone?
Well... this place is just cool!
Great fun place to walk and explore.
So many rooftop bars and restaurants in Stillwater! East of the cities but so worth the drive! Then get ice cream at MN Nice Cream.
Great Pub Food and Brewery. Really, anything is good.
It's like subway but a salad bar. Our go to salad: The No Prob Cobb
Super fun place to explore! Then get brunch or lunch at Colossal Cafe
They serve breakfast, lunch, and of course scones.
You could say we are slightly obsessed with ice-cream. They always add glitter, you just have to ask.
Italian food with beautiful cocktails & unique bouje pizzas. But really, the pizza has an exquisite flavor profile.
This place is $$$ but is so delicious! Also, ask to sit on the patio as it overlooks Lake Minnetonka. Also there is a place located in Edina as well in the Galleria. https://www.covwayzata.com/
Down a few blocks from Hotel Landing.
& if you are looking for cheese curds or buttered burgers then look no further. Claire's go to meal: Spicy chicken strips w/ cheese curds. Joe's go to meal: Oreo concrete mixer (similar to a blizzard from Dairy Queen).
Brewery + Patio
We love this place. Make reservations ahead of time though as it's popular. Owned by a Korean Chef. The entire experience is exquisite. Also, they have a drink called "hot girl summer" need I say more?
We live nearby and the seating is great as it overlooks the park and lake! American food is served! You can also rent paddle boards, kayaks, canoes, and pedal boats behind the restaurant.
